html5canvas api,html - New HTML5 Canvas API support - Stack Overflow

I have found several posts about new functions in HTML5 Canvas API, like Path primitives or Hit Regions.

It seems that the current specification (4.8.11) has got these features:

http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/the-canvas-element.html#hit-regions

Althought the context.addHitRegion (context is canvas2d context) in my Chrome 23.0.1271.64 returns undefined (I cannot create Path primitives too).

Does somebody know when these features will be implemented (their annoucment is from march so it is 8 months old)?

Can I test them in some beta versions of some browsers (it would be best if it could be under linux)?
